Train could have environmental impact

IN A meeting last week, the Mayor of Pedreguer, Sergi Ferrus, pressed the Governing Board of the Montgo Natural Park in regard to the proposed positioning of the Tren de la Costa.

The Ministry presented positioning proposals in February 2015 and the local municipalities voted in favour of proposal 3A – which runs parallel to the AP-7 and will cause the least amount of environmental damage in its surrounding areas.

The local municipalities voted against proposal 3C, which will adversely affect the Montgo Natural Park, however this proposal was favoured by the Ministry and made public in 2016.
Ferrus presented numerous studies and pledges against proposal 3C collected since 2016 and the Chairman of the Governing Board of the Montgo Natural Park committed to addressing the issue at the next meeting.
